Defensive Tactics: 1:45 - 3:00 pm. Worked on the system that they teach for self-defense, including a review from the previous week, along with a rear choke defense involving a cross-hand trap/reach over grab the ear, step around to secure arm to shoulder/arm lock; a hair grab defense into a standing arm bar (I had some trouble getting this one lined up right), and a headlock defense from the ground that was a lot like one we did at the GRACIE course.

9/11/2013

Taught TKD: 6:00 - 7:30 pm. Basics, forms, one-steps, and sparring. Had 3 new white belts in class, so I slowed a few things down to break things down for them here and there. Also got a good chunk of sparring in.
